Star Wars: Jedi Knight: Dark Forces II is a first-person shooter computer game released on October 9, 1997, by LucasArts. This was the first game in the series to include multiplayer capabilities over the Internet or over a LAN. It was also the first computer game to allow players to take control of a Jedi character using both the Force and lightsabers in a multiplayer setting.
The similarly titled novella Dark Forces: Jedi Knight is somewhat of a companion piece to the game.
